Lyndsey here with my regular Monday inspiration post, now I do apologise as this post is picture heavy - but I wanted to show you how the card opens up.

I was totally inspired to do this card after seeing one done by one of my team mates on another DT. I loved the design so much I made them with my card classes last week and decided to make another one using some of the fabulous products available in store so I could share it with you today.

The card itself is a Gatefold Card, with a central panel mounted on the front on springs (concertinaed panels of card). It then has 2 overlapping images and finally opening to reveal the sentiment on the inside.

Hello Everyone! Jane here today with something a little bit different for me. I have fallen in love with Mama Elephant stamps recently and have been experimenting with making some clean and simple cards for a bit of a change. They are so quick to make and I love the fact that they use up a lot of my scraps and leftover papers.

I used some good quality Papermania card bases that are a bit textured as I wanted to leave quite a bit of white space on the first one. I used a Dienamics snowdrift die to cut the blue card for the hills and stamped a sentiment from the Pandamonium set straight on to the card. I stamped the kissing pandas onto white card and cut them out before adding them to the card with foam pads. I then stamped a heart onto aqua card and cut it out. I added it to the card and then embellished it with glitter glue.

I used a scrap of My Mind's Eye paper for my second card. I stamped the Panda and the lantern onto white card and then die cut it using a stitched circle before I coloured the lantern with alcohol markers and added glitter glue. I then simply stamped the sentiment onto a strip of card and put it all together.
I hope you have a lovely Sunday!Jane

For my card that I am sharing today I have kept it Clean & Simple and created a background by stamping distress ink pads directly to the card blank. I have used this wonderful set by C.C Designs which you may have guessed is quite popular!

P.S. The text is a lot clearer in real life, not quite sure why it's so tricky to read on the photograph!

Lyndsey here with my regular Monday inspiration post. Its all about the Birthday's this week and I had just the perfect image to use for this theme.

For my card I chose to use the very cute CC Designs - Swiss Pixie Party Olivia and teamed her with some fab and funky Carta Bella Papers. Even though they are male themed the pastel colours in the pad still work perfectly for a girly card.

I kept the card quite simple and added just a few embellies from the £1 Embellishment range and finished off with double bow in pale lemon.

Thanks for joining me here today, please do pop back throughout the week to check out my team mates fabulous creations.

Hello Everyone! Jane here today and I am kicking off a brand new themed week on the blog. Our theme this week is 'Birthdays'. I have made a birthday card for a little boy using one of the adorable 'It's a boy' Hobby House toppers available here from My Mum's Craft shop.

I used papers from the Carta Bella 'Baby Mine' pad and from the Echo Park 'Getaway' pad. I added a sentiment from a Tiddlyinks set and some candy dots embellishments . I also added a bow topped with a button, some wooden stars and finished with some stick on pearls.

Here is a close up of the lovely image which I layered on to a doily die cut from blue paper before adding it to the card. Enjoy the rest of your Weekend!

Kitty here, today I have a fun & simple card to share with you that i made for My Mums Craft Shop. This card features one of the fabulous new stamp sets by Lawn Fawn - check out those cheeky faces!!

This super cute stamp set is called Let's Roll by Lawn Fawn and i also used the matching Dies. How cute are those sushi rolls, soy sauce & wasabi? I coloured each of them using my Copics. The sentiment is also from this stamp set. The background i made using a Lattice Embossing Folder. I simply added some blue twine to finish.
